Sherlock

Sherlock has been developed to undertake thermal imaging of solar farms. The Sherlock system is built around an X8 multicopter with integrated thermal IR and visual range cameras.The IR camera captures thermal images of solar equipment from which faults can be detected and the visual range camera provides additional diagnostic information. Also on board are a GPS receiver, a wifi link and a calibrated solar radiation sensor. The system is wholly integrated and controlled by the embedded Jetson TK1 processor.
